How to Activate the Pip-boy Light in "Fallout 3"
- 1). Press the pause button to access the options menu. Scroll through the available controls to locate the key assigned to "Access Pip Boy." Your Pip-Boy is your in-game organizer. It stores your map, your inventory and displays your stats and current objectives. You'll be accessing it a lot throughout the game.
- 2). Make a note of the Pip-Boy access key and exit the pause menu. Tapping the key will bring up a full-screen view of your Pip-Boy. Tapping it again will exit the Pip-Boy and return to the game.
- 3). Hold down the Pip-Boy access key for two to three seconds to toggle the light on and off. If this doesn't work, enter the options screen and re-assign the Pip-Boy Access command to a free key on your keyboard. Return to the game and try it again, then re-enter the options and assign it back to the default key.
